A/N: Another entry to Shira Lansys' Word Count Drabble Challenge, in which my prompts were "showing" and "path", my pairing was Draco/Luna and my word count was 92. Ninety two. It was a challenge, I'll tell you that. It's not much (92 words, have I mentioned that?) but it was fun to write.


He's not what you dreamt you'd want. He's got eyes like liquid steel and that dagger-edged smile and he's not afraid to douse you with reality in the form of word-swords. He's a coward and a cheat but he tells you the truth when no-one else will.

So this is the path you've chosen for yourself. You skip down broken trails and he pushes you over stepping-stones and drags you up crumbling hills, and all the while, you breathe slowly, hoping that in the end he will be showing you the light.
